The Met Cafe Reborn

The Met Cafe

The Met Cafe

Last night I got my first peak at the new Met Cafe, my friend Glenn Alexander of Tevellus was at the soon-to-be-open venue, setting up the sound system and invited me in for a sneak peak of the refurbished space.  It appears Rich and Sarah Lupo may have done it again.  The newest incarnation of The Met is located at 1005 Main Street in Pawtucket had housed The Blackstone for the past few years, the husband and wife team have done a tremendous job with the space. I had enjoyed a few shows at The Blackstone, but had always felt the room had been misused with its cramped stage design and general focus of the space on the bar and pool table area.  Those of you familiar with the former bar occupying the space will be pleasantly surprised to find all of the downfalls with The Blackstone of been correctly addressed with the new design of The Met Cafe.

Gamblin with Grabert


The Green Room was a little short staffed this week so Sully was joined by Dennis Emsley as co-host. Normally the silent sound engineer, Dennis stepped to the mic to provide help with banter and band input. Josh Grabert of the Gamblin Hands ventured to the studio for the normal interview and performance, but sat in on all sections of the show, providing input and asking a few well timed questions. Josh plays six of his originals for the Green Room, “Saint Peter,” “Take My Soul,” “Brow Street,” “Life on a River,” “K Dubbs and AQ,” and “Its a Feeling.”
